Hi,

we have a windows 2000 domain, the workstations are w2k pro´s.
Now we have couple of XP´s running in our domain and i want to add
the XP adm-files to w2k domain.

How to do this without losing the current policy settings in the domain ?
The file names are the same, so the new files will run over the older
adm-files...

Thanks.

the actual settings are not stored in the ADMs. By just administering
with an XP station the ADM files will be replaced automatically.
Remember that each GPO in the SYSVOL has its accompanying ADM files
and as these are replaced they are replicated to other DCs.

Do you use the GPMC? great free tool to admin GPOs
